This 2003 fictional tale of the incendiary days leading up to the Rodney King riots that blew apart Los Angeles in 1991 stars Kurt Russell as a doughy, dirty LAPD cop and Ving Rhames as his straight-shooting superior. The ending is pure Hollywood fantasy, but the rest of the film captures the seething, explosive tension that still permeates the City of Angels. Rated R/118 min.
